Which of the following statement is true with respect to H_2 O,...

Which of the following statement is true with respect to H2O,NH3\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{NH}_3 and CH4\mathrm{CH}_4 ? A. The central atoms of all the molecules are sp3\mathrm{sp}^3 hybridized. B. The H−O−H,H−N−H\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{H}, \mathrm{H}-\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H} and H−C−H\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H} angles in the above molecules are 104.5∘,107.5∘104.5^{\circ}, 107.5^{\circ} and 109.5∘109.5^{\circ}, respectively. C. The increasing order of dipole moment is CH4<NH3<H2O\mathrm{CH}_4 \lt \mathrm{NH}_3 \lt \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}. D. Both H2O\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} and NH3\mathrm{NH}_3 are Lewis acids and CH4\mathrm{CH}_4 is a Lewis base. E. A solution of NH3\mathrm{NH}_3 in H2O\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} is basic. In this solution NH3\mathrm{NH}_3 and H2O\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} act as Lowry-Bronsted acid and base respectively.
